Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly/Unused Dialogue

This is a sub-page of Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly.

Dragon Realms

These are various unused tutorial lines from Hunter. In the final game, Hunter is only seen once in the hub world.

So check this out: If you press the triangle button while in the middle of a jump, you'll do a Headbash that is great for breaking stuff open! Why don't you give it a try?
Well whad'ya know, I found a baby dragonfly! Why don't you add it to the collection?
Yo Spyro! It looks like you've activated your first breath ability! If you wanna switch between your available breath abilities, just press the L1 button.
You know, I heard that if you take a stone like that to the dragon statue over there, it will grant you a special power. Why don't you give it a try? Ain't dragon magic the best?
You've got Bubble Breath now! You can use your bubble breath to capture any dragonflies running loose all over the world. Look, there goes a dragonfly now!
You've gotta get close to him for the bubble breath to work! Of course, that's easier said than done.
Why don't you try using your Ice Breath? I bet it'll be more effective.
Electric Breath is the way to go! Try using it, and we'll see what happens.
There you go Spyro, I knew you'd get it!

Moneybags complaining about Gems. If he played a larger role in the story, this would be the way he repays you at the end of the game.

Voice Text
That's it, I've had it! I've had enough of dragons and dragonflies and gems. The gems, they're makin' me mad! Mad, I tell you, MAD! I need to change. Gold! Yes, that's it, Gold! Curse these gems they never get me anywhere! You take them Spyro, you seem to be awfully fond of them anyhow.

In this line, Zoe tells Spyro how to keep Sparx healthy. The final game has Sparx tells Spyro this himself.

Voice Text
Be sure to keep your friend, Sparx the Dragonfly, healthy Spyro. If his health is low, flaming or charging fodder for butterflies is a good idea. Sparx loves butterflies!

The only level that even uses the spitting mechanic is Honey Marsh. Aiming is used in other levels, but not the Dragon Realms.

Voice Text
Is there any way to aim when I'm spitting rocks?

Dragonfly Dojo

Zoe has two unused lines. One is similar to the first interaction with Zoe in Spyro 2, while the other was replaced by Sparx saying an edited version of the line in the final game.

Voice Text
Hello Spyro! Those dragonflies must be really frightened. We're all counting on you to find them. Remember, all throughout the Dragon Realms you'll find fairies that will save your progress with a little zap like this!
If you get into too much trouble, you'll return to the last fairy you encountered. And Spyro, make sure to use your breath weapons against any of the really big Riptocs. They're just too big to charge!

Crop Circle Country

Crop Circle, in particular, has very interesting unused voice clips meant for cut minigame ideas, different NPCs filling in for other characters, test lines, accidentally reading off dialogue prompts, and more.

Voice Text
Watch out Spyro! There are two UFOs this time, good luck!
Watch out Spyro! Some other UFOs are shooting at you this time.
Are you ready to play again?
Yeah, bring em' on!
No, not right now.

Cloud 9

The game contains alternate voice clips for all of Cloud 9's NPCs. These are probably placeholders that were used before the character's final voice was decided.

Voice Text
Hey Spyro, the riptocs have invaded our palace and sabotaged the machines powering our hourglass. Your electric breath would be perfect for powering the machines. Please help us.
Are you making any progress powering the machines?
Great job Spyro! Thanks for helping us out.
That thief has stolen my magic wand, and I need it to activate the swirly thing next to the machine. Could you get it back for me?
Have you managed to catch that thief yet? I really miss my wand.
Thanks Spyro, now I can power up the swirly thingy.
Are you making any progress powering the machines yet? I'm gettin' sleepy. I don't know how much longer I can stay up.
These lightning clouds are electrifying the pools. Could you use your superflame breath to get rid of them? Use the portal to power up your flame breath. That should do the trick.
There are still some clouds to get rid of Spyro. Get back out there!
Great job Spyro! Can you swim to the next machine? I'm too scared of the water, and I never learned how to swim.
I already gave you a dragonfly, what more do you want? I'm going back to bed.


Dialogue from the Cloud 9 Minigame Defend the Puffy Palace that is for a second, unused challenge (for which the reward would be an additional dragonfly). The final version of Cloud 9 only has one challenge:

Voice Text
Uh oh. It looks like another wave of battleships is on the way!
Great job Spyro! This dragonfly fell out of one of the airships and I caught it just in time. Why don't you take it?

Monkey Monastery

Dialogue from the Destroy the Riptoc Turret Factories minigame that is for a second, unused challenge (for which the reward would be an additional dragonfly). Like Cloud 9, the final version of Monkey Monastery only has one challenge.

Voice Text
Oh no. The Riptocs have rebuilt the factories. Can you destroy them again?
Those Riptocs won't be bothering us anymore! Here, I found another dragonfly in the wreckage.

Honey Marsh

Alternate dialogue for the NPCs of Honey Marsh. These may be from early in development before the final voice was decided. The first clip, Hey!, is actually used in-game, but it is used for Sparx at the end of the level and it's clear that the voice was not meant for him.

Voice Text
Hey!
Spyro, thank goodness you're here! These honey stills are drainin' all the honey from Honey Marsh. Uh can you help us? But be careful, if you fall into that honey you may not make it out.
Good job Spyro! I knew we could count on ya'!
Thanks Spyro! Now we'll be able to preserve the purity of our honey!

Alternate dialogue for one of the NPCs who wants you to destroy some Beehives by spitting rocks at them. These clips were also probably before they finalized the voice. They are mildly amusing though...

Voice Text
You know, if you grab one of them rocks on the ground, you can get the bees to buzz off by pickin' up one of the rocks on the ground, and spittin' on em.
You always come through Spyro! Thanks for the help.

An alternate version of the dialogue for the first NPC you meet. This could have just been a mistake to leave in the game and the final one could have been a retake of the clip.

Voice Text
I tells you what, I'll make you a deal as sweet as honey! There are some honey stills drainin' all the honey from Honey Marsh. You help us get rid of em, and any of them there dragonflys you're goin' on about that you find along the way, you can keep. Just keep that between us now, ya hear?

Thieves Den

Alternate dialogue for all of the NPCs in Thieves Den.

Voice Text
The Riptoc wizards have turned our den upside-down! Our own treasure is running away from us! Take care of the Riptoc wizards and meet me at the end of the tunnel.
Hah hah! I knew you were the right dragon for the job Spyro!
Unfortunately, I forgot my water wings. Say, maybe you could do it? You know, if I could swim, I'd dive under the water and press that switch to open that door.
Yeah, not bad! But if I had those water wings, I would've taken care of it myself.
Hey Spyro! Did you drop this? Are you losing things again?
Well, if you drop any more of those little bug things around here, I'll be sure to send them your way!
